 | deb_OT @dmay_ot I'm here and lurking. Mostly I'm here to learn. I have no experience yet of OT and MH so I assume that's what my final placement next year will be. #otalk |

 | Dr Angie Logan (She/Her) @logan_angie RT @KatrinaBannigan: Ever wondered whether working in research a viable option for occupational therapists? ROTTERS SW are hosting #OTalk Research 5 June 18 https://t.co/S0buAQCFvy Will you contribute to the discussion? @CAHPRsouthwest @rotterstruro @ROTTERsExeter @ROTTERsPlym @OTPlymouthUni @PIELRes |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH We'll start with Question #1: Have you used recovery approaches/principles in your work as a qualified OT? If so, did these approaches originate from the recovery model or OT frameworks/models? If not, why? #OTalk https://t.co/nrVKrRg29j |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @BillWongOT Great! Thanks for tuning in and joining us in our time zone! 😊 #OTalk |
 | Elle Russell, MS, OTR/L @elleOT2019 Hhhhiiiii! I'm here! #otalk https://t.co/lb3MMSz2nK |
 | Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @dmay_ot I'm in the same boat, I have two placements left after my current one and at least one of those will be a mental health setting but so far I don't have experience of it #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTJennyH That will be the only time of year... until I join you guys for #rcot2019. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @lookhearaust @OT_rach It’s an app called Bitmoji - you can then add them to your keybroad! #OTalk https://t.co/meUNmBOLv8 |
| Elle Russell, MS, OTR/L @elleOT2019 RT @OTalk_: Right then @OTJennyH is hosting tonight, so keep an eye out for her questions #Otalk https://t.co/cQd7oRjmjk |
 | Nicola Stirling @nicola_stirling @OTalk_ Hi all, mostly lurking for me tonight, interesting topic #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 1 #OTalk https://t.co/oR0pivLh7v |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTJennyH Hmmm... I am going to use my own experiences as a service user. It sure took some time for me to got out of a mental rut when I was trying to accept that I have autism back in 2010. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Don’t forget the # in all your tweets #OTalk https://t.co/xulL6NZaIR |
| Elle Russell, MS, OTR/L @elleOT2019 I'm a student and ironically enough, today is day 1 of my Level 1 Fieldwork Placement in Mental Health. Looking forward to observing this approach in practice as well as learn from others on today's #OTalk chat. https://t.co/16XkBZZLZw |
 | Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @OTJennyH I’m here too. I used Recovery Principles in my final role-emerging placement. What are thoughts on using Recovery Star? #OTalk |
 | Emily @EmilyD_OT @OTalk_ @OT_rach I'm lurking this evening, my next placement is a role emerging placement with service users with drug and alcohol addiction so this could be helpful for that setting! #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Looks like there is lots of students on tonight, any mental health practising OT’s (other than me @OT_rach) #OTalk |
 | Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @OTJennyH On my forensic placement I don’t remember the term being used all that much but the aim of the service was definitely focused on recovery and working towards service users ‘recovering’ and being able to function and live in society #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @BillWongOT Do you feel this was from recovery approaches or activity-focused interventions? #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Anyone else used the recovery star? It’s a generic tool, #otalk do you think it is occupation focussed? #otalk https://t.co/YfP6nGlPpx |
 | Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTJennyH I always enjoy and benefit from reading and engaging with #OTalk. I’m a recent graduate and awaiting my first post. |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @RobTheOT That's very interesting to know. How was it focused on recovery? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTJennyH I think it was more of a recovery approach because I was coming to terms to my duo identity as a future OT and an autistic individual at the time. #otalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie Any OTs who can get involved? #otalk https://t.co/ujKtEQrg27 |
 | Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @OTJennyH I work on a mental health recovery ward, but have used a “recovery” approach throughout my professional practice including physical health settings. #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH Next on is Question #2: If you’re a prospective OT, how would you include recovery principles in your future OT practice? #OTalk https://t.co/Mmn3DaCqvr |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @debbieduckie: Any OTs who can get involved? #otalk https://t.co/ujKtEQrg27 |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @BillWongOT Can you explain in some detail on how it was a recovery approach? Do you think OTs can support that area and make it more beneficial through a recovery approach? #OTalk |
| Look Hear Global & Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @OTJennyH I haven't used them a lot, but I am interested in the idea of 'recovery' and how meaningful occupation can help / be included in this model #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @pjmasonOT: @OTJennyH I work on a mental health recovery ward, but have used a “recovery” approach throughout my professional practice including physical health settings. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 2 #OTalk https://t.co/XK8yMrRQLM |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Clarelyonscoll1 Hi! Nice to meet you. That's for sharing, can you explain how the model we use is focused on the recovery model? #OTalk |
| Look Hear Global & Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @Clarelyonscoll1 @OTJennyH I would love to know more! #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @lookhearaust Same here! 😊 Stay tune for the next questions... #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT @OTJennyH I think part of it was because I see the OT once a week and in an outpatient setting. Moreover, we were focusing on what would be the present and near future only during the course of treatments. #otalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @OTJennyH I think it was focused on recovery by supporting the service users to find things they enjoy doing (I.e. meaningful occupations) firstly within the hospital and then later in their recovery journey outside the hostital as they begin to engage in the community again #OTalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTalk_ I’m thinking an action plan on the back of this #OTalk to learn more about recovery models! |
 | ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail RT @OTJennyH: We'll start with Question #1: We'll start with Question #1: Have you used recovery approaches/principles in your work as a qualified OT? If so, did these approaches originate from the recovery model or OT frameworks/models? If not, why? #OTalk https://t.co/nrVKrRg29j |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @pjmasonOT That's great to hear. Can you provide more details on how you used the recovery approach in your practice? #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @EmilyDeadman @RobTheOT @OT_rach @orlatheot Don’t forget your #OTalk in all your tweets so please can see them and they get included in the transcript, which you can use as CPD evidence!! |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail RT @OTalk_: Question 2 #OTalk https://t.co/XK8yMrRQLM |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail RT @OTalk_: Anyone else used the recovery star? It’s a generic tool, #otalk do you think it is occupation focussed? #otalk https://t.co/YfP6nGlPpx |
| Nicola Stirling @nicola_stirling @pjmasonOT @OTalk_ @OTJennyH Think I need to learn more about this approach. Any tips where to start? #OTalk |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @RobTheOT: @OTJennyH I think it was focused on recovery by supporting the service users to find things they enjoy doing (I.e. meaningful occupations) firstly within the hospital and then later in their recovery journey outside the hostital as they begin to engage in the community again #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @MichelleKeefe1 you need to put the #OTalk in all your tweets so please can see them https://t.co/Fwki8Vv1ya |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @BillWongOT Ah, I understand now. Thanks for sharing! #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail I'm here for a lurk - wanting to learn from all these fresh new minds #otalk https://t.co/WmYO2gQRYV |
 | Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Hi Jenny (and everyone here). Sorry for being late. Am lurking this evening - will be reading and learning from you all. Not much experience in this but planned changes in our service means it will be useful! #otalk https://t.co/kYSdAmFITv |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 #OTalk https://t.co/pyq8iXHsgs |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @RedAndWhite11 don’t forget the # in all your tweets or you end up on my naughty step #OTalk https://t.co/4jbl7stclU |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @RobTheOT Ah I see. Thanks for sharing! What kind of occupations were in hospital and out in the community? #OTalk #caretoshare |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ Whoops! Just retweeted with #OTalk so hope that will include my comment |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @nicola_stirling @pjmasonOT @OTalk_ https://t.co/6CW2Xoa6Nb #OTalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ Interesting Michelle! Which parts of the recovery based approach meant it was less occupation focused? #OTalk |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @OTJennyH Key principles for example living well with illness/injury, promoting hope, connection, meaning and purpose in life #OTalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @OTalk_ When I think of it it always makes me think of the Unrecovery Star, created by people who've experienced mental health care and are critical of how popular ideas of recovery can ignore environmental/social factors that impact health https://t.co/4PtvoCmRoe #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @nicola_stirling @pjmasonOT @OTalk_ @OTJennyH classic ref is Anthony 1993, and Deegan. #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Quite a few people are forgetting the hashtag, you don’t wanna do that otherwise you end up on @OT_rach Naughty step. Remember #OTalk in every tweet!!! (Just one T) https://t.co/5H1tSxTsfn |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail Tips on recovery literature? #otalk https://t.co/4j7u2e2VvJ |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail RT @debbieduckie: @OTalk_ I’m thinking an action plan on the back of this #OTalk to learn more about recovery models! |
| Bill Wong, OTD, OTR/L @BillWongOT RT @OTJennyH: @nicola_stirling @pjmasonOT @OTalk_ https://t.co/6CW2Xoa6Nb #OTalk |
| Nicola Stirling @nicola_stirling @pjmasonOT @OTalk_ @OTJennyH Thanks, will take a look #OTalk |
| Look Hear Global & Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @OTalk_ @EmilyDeadman @RobTheOT @OT_rach @orlatheot Where do we get the transcripts from? I didnt know we could use them as evidence!! Awesome!! #OTalk |
| Sherlyn 🤔⭐️(she/her) @sherlynmelody RT @pjmasonOT: @OTJennyH Key principles for example living well with illness/injury, promoting hope, connection, meaning and purpose in life #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @pjmasonOT Wow, those are some principles within the recovery approach. What valuable knowledge to hear others using it within OT practice! #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH Up next is Question #3: What are your thoughts in using recovery principles in OT work? #OTalk https://t.co/7rIygOHyCg |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @lookhearaust @EmilyDeadman @RobTheOT @OT_rach @orlatheot It’s up on the blog a few days after the chat, #otalk keep checking it! |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Clarelyonscoll1 Wow, that's really interesting. I did come across "co-production" recently doing research out in the community and would love to learn about it more. #OTalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @RobTheOT @OTalk_ One child declined to take part with the Recovery Star so used a stop motion Lego activity instead, which gave me so much more insight into the child’s world and felt collaborative rather than interrogative #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 3 #OTalk https://t.co/LCKr4UaEXh |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail I love @RITB_ This and some of their other scathing critiques made me laugh my socks off - i totally recognised the argument #otalk https://t.co/0C7fxqClGm |
 | Lauren @Lauren_OT @OTJennyH To me, you can’t separate the two! #OTalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @OTJennyH Within hospital we had groups/activities that could be considered a mix of self-care, productivity/vocation and leisure based: gardening, cooking, computers, cafe work, car washing, sports, dj-ing... based on their interests we could find suitable things in community #OTalk |
| Look Hear Global & Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @OTJennyH I've just looked up the Star model that was mentions before.... I think it looks complicated - but I do think meaningful and purposeful use of time is a key in any sort of recovery #OTalk |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @OTJennyH I feel really strongly that recovery principles synchronise with OT values. Worked really well in orthopaedics, surgical and oncology and I imagine it’s use in stroke/neuro would be useful #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Lauren_OT Definitely in agreement with you. But how much do we need to actually have a "recovery" approach rather than "activity-based" approach? #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @RobTheOT Wow, those are a lot of activities. Do they fit the demographic population of in-patients? Is cultural and diversity considerations of the patients considered? #OTalk |
| Carolina C 🏳️🌈 @colourful_ot @ForensicDetail @RITB_ I think it's an important point for OT; our whole ethos is meant to be about being holistic, looking at the person+environment+occupation, and I get the impression some recovery-based approaches are a bit focused on just the person and their motivation to recover? #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail Recovery - redefining a valued sense of self in spite of everything mental health services have done... #otalk |
 | amy gowdridge @AGowdridge @OTalk_ my Twitter is not working I’m an OT currently working in mental health unsure if I can join in tonight 😔 recovery to me is important tool when I would with clients to sometimes look at king term goals or how occupations can aid recovery #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ That’s interesting lots of students talked about recovery being a mental health placement learning experiences - but don’t you ‘recover’ in all settings - have students seen recovery approaches used in physical, social services or LD placements? #OTalk https://t.co/FjHYjMj0oi |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @lookhearaust I was actually speaking to a service user and the person said the Recovery Star model doesn't work for everyone. It didn't work for the person... #OTalk |
| amy gowdridge @AGowdridge @OTalk_ @OTalk_ my Twitter is not working I’m an OT currently working in mental health unsure if I can join in tonight 😔 recovery to me is important when I’m with clients. Also how occupations can aid recovery and be a part of their recovery #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @colourful_ot @RITB_ Absolutely - sometimes services misappropriate recovery, or rebrand what they always did as recovery. "your not motivated to recover - not my fault" not recognising the disempowering world of MH from the other side of the desk #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Clarelyonscoll1 Great, thanks for sharing. Will give it a read! #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @colourful_ot: @ForensicDetail @RITB_ I think it's an important point for OT; our whole ethos is meant to be about being holistic, looking at the person+environment+occupation, and I get the impression some recovery-based approaches are a bit focused on just the person and their motivation to recover? #OTalk |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @OTJennyH @Lauren_OT Through critical reflection we can ‘unpick’ how we have used or are using models, frameworks and principles within our practice #OTalk it’s easy to not consider that you’re using recovery when perhaps you actually are |
| Nicola Stirling @nicola_stirling @pjmasonOT @OTJennyH Ooh got me thinking now! #OTalk |
 | The Occupational Therapy Hub @theOThub RT @OTalk_: That’s interesting lots of students talked about recovery being a mental health placement learning experiences - but don’t you ‘recover’ in all settings - have students seen recovery approaches used in physical, social services or LD placements? #OTalk https://t.co/FjHYjMj0oi |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH On to Question #4: How do you think your clients/service users understand your therapy work? Are recovery principles explicitly demonstrated in your interventions? #OTalk https://t.co/19SxWHnpuv |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @AGowdridge Well we got that tweet, maybe twitter is recovering — #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Yes we used this sort of language/approach in a brain injury rehab placement I had. I think in this, and other settings too, there is some caution around “recovery” and what expectations are around that word, and working with the individual around this? #otalk https://t.co/MeMt7KUVlt |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @OTalk_ Oh good point! In community rehabilitation and neuro it was definitely a big focus. Though the term ‘baseline’ was used a lot more. Supporting people to return to their baseline... #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @pjmasonOT Yeah it can and that's great! Thanks for sharing! #OTalk |
| Sherlyn 🤔⭐️(she/her) @sherlynmelody @Clarelyonscoll1 @OTJennyH Please, what is co-production 🤦🏾♀️ #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 4 #OTalk https://t.co/WCq1eKZtAr |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @ChloeDicksonnn Yeah, definitely! #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail A guest-blog a little while ago about recovery and service user involvement - might be interesting for tonights chat https://t.co/hxEVmiiwDT #otalk |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @ForensicDetail For me the living well “in spite” of illness/injury is the core business for OT #OTalk |
 | Rachel @RachelOT7 RT @pjmasonOT: @OTJennyH Key principles for example living well with illness/injury, promoting hope, connection, meaning and purpose in life #OTalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTalk_ I can’t see why not but I haven’t heard the term used. My placements have been predominantly rehabilitation but quite procedural. #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Clarelyonscoll1 Wow, eager to learn more! #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail RT @OTJennyH: On to Question #4: On to Question #4: How do you think your clients/service users understand your therapy work? Are recovery principles explicitly demonstrated in your interventions? #OTalk https://t.co/19SxWHnpuv |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT RT @OTalk_: That’s interesting lots of students talked about recovery being a mental health placement learning experiences - but don’t you ‘recover’ in all settings - have students seen recovery approaches used in physical, social services or LD placements? #OTalk https://t.co/FjHYjMj0oi |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @sherlynmelody @Clarelyonscoll1 I'm not exactly entirely sure but maybe this is a start: https://t.co/54VAQjysfe #OTalk |
 | Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley @OTalk_ Language of recovery is prominent in mental health but recovery principles similar to person centred care and expert patient so goes across many clinical areas not just mental health #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Similar to what I was just saying too @RobTheOT. Even with this though we had to manage discussions around questions about getting back to how things were “before” the injury etc #otalk https://t.co/TrJSyjbyt5 |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 RT @ForensicDetail: @colourful_ot @RITB_ Absolutely - sometimes services misappropriate recovery, or rebrand what they always did as recovery. "your not motivated to recover - not my fault" not recognising the disempowering world of MH from the other side of the desk #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @sherlynmelody @Clarelyonscoll1 @OTJennyH https://t.co/eTzgGEUrZs this night help!! #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @pjmasonOT me too - participation in life is independent of any diagnosis and is our role to maximise it when barriers are bemusing a person #otalk |
| Rachel @RachelOT7 RT @debbieduckie: @OTJennyH I always enjoy and benefit from reading and engaging with #OTalk. I’m a recent graduate and awaiting my first post. |
| Emily @EmilyD_OT @RobTheOT @OTalk_ I agree, it seems different terminology is used in physical/ mental health settings, with return to baseline commonly used in physical settings and 'recovery' in mental health. Perhaps something to do with the progressive nature of some conditions in physical setting? #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @pjmasonOT @Lauren_OT Definitely. It requires deep reflection on how OT is recovery-based but activity-focused at the same time, if that makes sense. #OTalk |
| amy gowdridge @AGowdridge @Ruth_Hawley @OTalk_ I agree it’s how recovery word is used and in what context recovery will mean different things to different people at different times of their life dependent of their experiences #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman @RobTheOT Same in forensic services - often there isn't an acceptable baseline - and it's about discovering a new self, not recovering an old one. Maybe even harder when theres no blueprint to go back to? #otalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @colourful_ot @RITB_ I think Recovery approach is about the idea of reclaiming life, as it is- which relates to all health settings and so appropriate to OT #OTalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTJennyH As a student I think my challenge was articulation of OT in that context and therefore expectations of outcomes. I used PEOP to frame my discussions, but feel that using recovery language might have been more appropriate #otalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Agreed, good point @ForensicDetail #otalk https://t.co/LdWSBojdcm |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot Don't think #otalk has ever prompted me to open so many tabs to explore the ideas being discussed. Loving it - but my brain is struggling to keep up! |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @debbieduckie I’m so surprised, shocked and amazed. Recovery is key to any delivery of good occupational therapy, we need to understand what recovery means to those we are working with. #OTalk https://t.co/AP39aFq6Fi |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ #Otalk https://t.co/oe3sZFC1MC |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @lookhearaust Not really. The person said it was moving forward to activities/occupations, i.e. getting a job, living independently, pursuing higher education--all occupation-based and focused. But within that, the person did say that getting a job improved confidence/self-esteem #OTalk |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley @AGowdridge @OTalk_ Occupational participation is critical to facilitating recovery and to how people measure their level of recovery #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @OTJennyH @sherlynmelody @Clarelyonscoll1 when you design the intervention, or even the whole service collaboratively with service users. e.g. designing and running a group together. Could check out Recovery Colleges if you haven't come across before #otalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTalk_ We do! I’ll be checking my ethos and making sure I don’t fall onto a convey belt practice #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @mhairi_hynie Thanks for sharing! Can you explain how and what outcomes should be the aim? #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH Onto the final question...Question #5: Currently, there is no guidance for OTs to apply recovery approaches by RCOT. What are your thoughts about this? Should RCOT follow the AOTA and OTAustralia by releasing explicit guidance on this for OTs in the UK? #OTalk https://t.co/wNlZpHtcLO |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @dmay_ot I’m keeping a list! #otalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman @RobTheOT I’ve been looking a lot at use of metaphor in therapeutic dialogue and public health messages; ‘new normal’ was one useful one I recall from a recent article. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Here here #Otalk https://t.co/kALGQ3X0l5 |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @debbieduckie Great, thanks for joining us Debbie! Looking forward to your opinions! #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Question 5 #OTalk https://t.co/wSXnAXxb0s |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @ForensicDetail @sherlynmelody @Clarelyonscoll1 I have come across Recovery Colleges and so forth and knew it more as a collaboration rather than co-production. I will look into it. #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman I currently work with older adults with dementia, another population where we go for other approaches/language #otalk @ForensicDetail https://t.co/LdWSBojdcm |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @OTJennyH Some did- some didn’t. Waiting for change in leave from governmental/legal level (MOJ) was the biggest barrier that held service users back from progressing... that was frustrating, when they were ready to continue their recovery journey but prevented from doing so #OTalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTJennyH Do we have a culture of guidance from rcot? #otalk. It would certainly be helpful for me following this conversation! I could tick my list! |
| deb_OT @dmay_ot @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman @RobTheOT I love "new normal" I've used it a lot in my personal life when things have changed - good and bad. Having kids definitely generated a 'new normal' and normal changes on an annual basis as they grow up! (peripherally #OTalk) |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Clarelyonscoll1 @sherlynmelody Thanks for the image! Very simple way to understand it, especially for visual learners! #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @MichelleKeefe1 @EllenChisman @RobTheOT not sure about that one - were things ever normal. What is normal. What if normal is scary when being special is all you know? maybe my own insecurities about normality... In criminal justice they talk about the "new me" too. #otalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ I do think RCOT guidance would be helpful. I’ve been reading recently about psychological frames of reference dominating in MDT in MH and so OT relevant approaches might be helpful? #OTalk |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @OTJennyH @Lauren_OT Agreed. Reinstating, maintaining or achieving participation in valued occupations is a symptom of recovery in action. #OTalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @debbieduckie @OTJennyH There’s definitely practice guidelines for certain areas https://t.co/nLvv6xoTDS #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @debbieduckie Thanks for sharing Debbie! Do you know how you can do this in a similar setting in the future? #OTalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @dmay_ot @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman New normal is great! #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman thats true - when things are often framed in terms of preventing further 'deterioration' how to be hopeful - what language do you use? #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @theRCOT - have the recovering ordinary lives! 2007 -2017 https://t.co/yVjOTh26uZ #OTalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 RT @RobTheOT: @dmay_ot @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman New normal is great! #OTalk |
| Look Hear Global & Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @OTJennyH 2/2 I have found myself using a lot of the Australian best practice guidelines when I haven't been able to find a UK equivalent - though then get questions from other professionals and families - maybe I am just not looking in the right places? #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Yes and something we work with families of those with dementia we see sometimes. Thanks for sharing this both of you :-) #otalk https://t.co/FuFHV4MqLp |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 RT @dmay_ot: @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman @RobTheOT I love "new normal" I've used it a lot in my personal life when things have changed - good and bad. Having kids definitely generated a 'new normal' and normal changes on an annual basis as they grow up! (peripherally #OTalk) |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ i know some psychiatrists who would disagree that psychological approaches dominate MDT :) #otalk |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley @OTJennyH Many recovery principles have their roots and are aligned with traditional OT values and philosophy, so if staying true to #OT recovery principles will naturally follow #OTalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @lookhearaust @OTJennyH @otaust Interesting to hear! Are they always applicable to U.K. setting? #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @Ruth_Hawley: @OTJennyH Many recovery principles have their roots and are aligned with traditional OT values and philosophy, so if staying true to #OT recovery principles will naturally follow #OTalk |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Interesting - can see what you mean. I think sometimes we go with what the person/families are using in their terminology, or what works for them - a useful point you make though. Perhaps being open to a variety of language etc helps? #otalk https://t.co/FrAKiRYTSu |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail Anyone in the forensic world may be interested in 'secure recovery' - where a person also has to come to terms with the part of themslef that may have committed a serious crime #otalk https://t.co/qEzUsOZsIa |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @ForensicDetail: @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ i know some psychiatrists who would disagree that psychological approaches dominate MDT :) #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @RobTheOT Yes, definitely an unfortunate and challenging situation for everyone involved in their care. I guess there must be some change in the system to enable quicker processes to prevent deterioration of the patients' mental health and delay recovery. #OTalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman @ForensicDetail I completely agree that the language we use is so important, and finding hopeful ways to express opportunities for paths ahead, not just paths to be avoided or feared #OTalk |
| Nicola Stirling @nicola_stirling @Ruth_Hawley @AGowdridge @OTalk_ Love that! #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH Any final thoughts? #OTalk https://t.co/HL5GI4zYg5 |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley Oops #OTalk https://t.co/fIRjU815f3 |
| Look Hear Global & Look Hear Australia @lookhearaust @RobTheOT @OTJennyH @otaust The one I was using was the Roberts and Prior about sensory interventions in schools #OTalk https://t.co/1kRyeIyvTm |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @ForensicDetail @MichelleKeefe1 @EllenChisman @RobTheOT In my experience “normalising” mental illness and other illnesses/injuries can be helpful when trying to support someone to feel hope, not to feel alone,to aid recovery Support forums online, specialised charities and community access groups are useful #OTalk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @EllenChisman For me, important to recognise that not everyone shares the same experience of life. many do of course, and agree, starting with the words that a service user choses is best #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @lookhearaust @otaust Wow, that's great to know. The US AOTA has something similar as well. I am in agreement that the UK policies/guidelines are very similar and vague/abstract at times, especially on recovery in mental health. #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Only 5 mins left #Otalk |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @lookhearaust @OTJennyH @otaust Ok thanks! Was it easy to apply and use here? Maybe we need more sharing of resources globally! #OTalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 #OTalk https://t.co/AL7a2RleUk |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @OTJennyH Well done @OTJennyH for bringing fresh eyes to recovery on #otalk tonight |
| Sherlyn 🤔⭐️(she/her) @sherlynmelody Thanks for a great show tonight. I have a lot of research and reading to do. I’ve got to log off. Thanks everyone for your input #otalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @mhairi_hynie Were these interventions activity-based/focused? Can you provide an example? Was the activity/session meaningful for them? #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ RT @OTJennyH: Any final thoughts? #OTalk https://t.co/HL5GI4zYg5 |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ What population of children do you work with? Interested in learning more about this! #OTalk |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley @OTJennyH Having said all that having @theRCOT guidelines regarding #OT and recovery would definitely be useful and valued by both students and clinicians #OTalk |
| Deb Duck @debbieduckie @OTJennyH @OTalk_ Thanks all, I’ve got a lot to think about. I’ve got an interview in MH soon and didn’t get practice experience. Hopefully I can fill some knowledge gaps with engaging here. #otalk |
| Elle Russell, MS, OTR/L @elleOT2019 Article by Gibson, D'Amico, Jaffe & Arbesman (2011), RM seems to align well w/OTs OA Model where the therapist guides client toward self-awareness in the need to adapt. Gain insight that life is still meaningful. Certainly, therapeutic use of self in my future practice. #OTalk https://t.co/aNIV2w4XeU |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ That's officially the end of #OTalk tonight! Transcript posted after 24hrs. Thank you to @OTJennyH for hosting. 👍🏾 https://t.co/ukQ7soF8lF |
| Ellen Chisman @EllenChisman Thank you everyone for an interesting talk this evening. Got me thinking! Enjoyed talking with you and hearing your views/experiences :-) #otalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Join us next week for #OTalk Research - Is working in research a viable option for occupational therapists? Hosted by ROTTERS SW |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Ruth_Hawley Definitely. However because there are national policies and environmental pressures on OT, do you feel there is a need to explicitly state how this can follow suit? If OTs should follow a certain standard of implementing the recovery approach? #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Less than 2 weeks until #RCOT2018. Are you coming to Belfast? If you are attending look out for the @OTalk_ crew at Tuesday mornings #OTalk occupation station (Session 21). We are aiming to support attendees in using social media both professionally and therapeutically. https://t.co/IOjUk5Rwc1 |

| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @RobTheOT @OTalk_ @RobTheOT I did a role emerging placement for 10 weeks with a charity for young caters, taking a whole family approach to wellbeing plans, children and YP 10-13 #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ Also if you are attending #RCOT2018 & arriving on the Sunday evening? Why not join us for an informal get together!

| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @MOHOspark @otalk @janet_folland No worries Sue! I hope you can have a look through the #OTalk page to read up on it! #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH Thank you for tuning in to this week's OTalk with @OTJennyH! #OTalk https://t.co/XESuoK3Uvt |
| Rob Molloy @RobTheOT @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ Sounds like a really interesting (and I’m sure challenging) placement! #OTalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @OTalk_ @OT_rach Thank you! #OTalk |
| Philip Mason @pjmasonOT @nicola_stirling @OTalk_ @OTJennyH Recovering ordinary lives was where I first heard the term, but it’s well used and I’m sure there’s plenty of literature out there #OTalk |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley Same in early intervention in psychosis that young people were still on journey of identity formation and not necessarily having established baseline or blueprint to return to #OTalk https://t.co/BlTuNKi1aS |

| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @ForensicDetail It was all my pleasure! Thanks for joining in this #OTalk discussion! |
| ForensicDetail @ForensicDetail @Ruth_Hawley is anyone recovering - or are we all on a process of occupation adaptation? #otalk |

| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @Ruth_Hawley @theRCOT I am definitely on your wavelength. #OTalk |
 | Becki Billing @Smeckibiff RT @SWhitingOT: Ever wondered whether working in research a viable option for occupational therapists? ROTTERS SW are hosting #OTalk Research 5 June 18 https://t.co/hkieilBIY5 Will you contribute to the discussion? @rotterstruro @ROTTERsExeter @ROTTERsPlym @OTPlymouthUni @PIELRes |
| Kirstie @Kirstie_OT @OTJennyH Great use of graphics for tonights chat Jenny 👍🏼 #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @debbieduckie @OTalk_ That's great to hear Debbie! Good luck on the interview! You'll smash it and there's loads to learn. Just take it at your pace. Thanks for joining! #OTalk |
| Michelle Keefe @MichelleKeefe1 @RobTheOT @OTalk_ @RobTheOT It was a great experience! I was originally a primary school teacher and I love working with children and YP in such a holistic way #OTalk |
| Jenny Hong @OTJennyH @elleOT2019 Definitely. Therapeutic use of self is very valuable as a clinician and human being. #OTalk |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley @ForensicDetail Great question! And interesting debate; however service users in my opinion may find recovery a more natural concept that has meaning for them than occupational adaptation. #OTalk |
| Ruth Hawley @Ruth_Hawley @OTJennyH Thanks for facilitating! Enjoyed my first participation in an #OTalk |
| #OTalk @OTalk_ @dmay_ot I’m sure we will, just tweet when you get there, we are likely to teeet about what we are up to!!! With our twitter selfie broad!!! #OTalk https://t.co/4AVoSghiTI |
